Sierra Club Tampa Bay Area Issues

Share

Today on the Sustainable Living Program we spent the hour with a couple of guests from the Tampa Bay Chapter of the Sierra Club.

We had Tampa Bay’s Executive Group Chairperson, Kent Bailey, and Jim Hibernian, a Sierra Club staff member that’s working on their Beyond Coal Campaign.

Sierra is getting ready for the St Pete Drive Electric Day coming up September 12, and to start the show we talked about this event with Phil Compton, a senior representative with Sierra.

The remainder of the hour we talked about many issues, mainly power plants, but also black bear and Florida panther hunting, the Solar Choice amendment, James Hansen and sea level rise, solar parity, etc.
